Victory Records’
latest signing, WE WERE SHARKS are
premiering “Stay,” the second video behind their upcoming album, Lost Touch, set for release on February
23, 2018. The video lands just in time as the Canadian power punks pack their
gear and hit the US next week to introduce new tracks from Lost Touch live for the very first time.

Victory Records is proud to announce the addition of dynamic punk ensemble WE WERE SHARKS to the labels ever growing roster. With the debut premiere of their brand new video “Beyond Repair,” the Canadian six-piece powerhouse hits the road tonight ready to douse crowds with material from their new album, Lost Touch, set for release on February 23, 2018.

Combining soulful vocals and avant-garde
imagery in one infectious burst, AWAKEN
I AM has eradicated genres with “Black Dreams,” their latest visual
masterpiece. The video comes from their likewise enchanting new album, Blind
Love, available everywhere now.

ABANDONED BY BEARS has delivered a previously unreleased track, an absolutely infectious cover of The Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back.” The smooth Motown classic smacks you in the face with a dose of easycore, then kisses it and makes it all better with its worldly recognized lyrics. The track comes as the Swedish punk mob begin their inaugural UK tour tomorrow.

As summer has come to a close, BROADSIDE has delivered another slice of paradise, the Morrissey-inspired song and new music video “I Love You, I Love You. It’s Disgusting.” The bittersweet track is the closer on their latest album Paradise, and furthers BROADSIDE’s abiding pledge to fearlessly expand their voice as leaders of the pop-punk crusade.

10 years has passed since we all lost Ray "Raybeez" from Warzone. The void he left can never be filled and we will always miss him. Ray was a strong supporter and believer in the worldwide hardcore/punk movements and underground music in general.
"Always, a friend for life. Don't forget the struggle, don't forget Raybeez."

Dearest fans & friends,
After nine years, nine countries, over a thousand shows and more than a lifetime worth of memories, it comes with a heavy heart that Spitalfield will be calling it quits. This choice has been one of the hardest things any of us have ever gone through, as the decision has absolutely nothing to do with a lack of passion for making music together or love for each other.
On a brighter note, we won’t be going out without a bang! We’d like to announce our final tour, which will be a very bittersweet and emotional stretch of dates for us. We will be hitting twenty-five cities this Nov/Dec with support from The Forecast, The Graduate, Ludo & Attention. This is a Curtain Call: Spitalfield’s Final Shows. Below is a list of the confirmed dates- with a handful more cities waiting to be finalized. Tickets will be going on sale this coming Saturday, September 15th.
We’d like to send out a most sincere thank you to all of our fans, friends & families. You have made all the difference in the world to us all along the way with your love, support and faith in us, both as musicians and as people. To the bands that we have looked up to, been inspired by and/or shared the stage with—we appreciate the talent & friendships that you have shared with us. Last, but certainly not least, a huge thank you to our amazing crew, who has spent long & hard hours with us on tour, behind desks and in the studio over the years. I don’t know what we would have done without you all. Does this feel like the end of The Wizard of Oz to anybody else? In all honesty, it’s so difficult to try to convey everything we’re feeling and everything that we’d like to say. So, for now…
“You felt alive like a motion picture. It’s just a matter of where you are when you’re awake. When you fall asleep, this music will end. Forget everything. Your dreams will remember right now.”
We’ll miss this so much,
Mark, JD & TJ
Spitalfield

Silverstein Announces BroFest 2007 & "Nicholas Hurlbut Memorial Fund" Official Website: www.brofest.org
Brofest originated in Fall 2006 to honour Nicholas Hurlbut, a beloved friend and member of Burlington's thriving music community, who lost his battle with cancer on August 21, 2006. The first Brofest concert (affectionally dubbed "Brofest '85") was an opportunity for Nick's friends to turn their grief into something positive, meaningful, and productive. In cooperation with the Burlington YMCA, Brofest brought together a menagerie of local bands to raise funds and cancer awareness, as well as
provide an opportunity for friends and family to connect in celebration of Nicholas's life. Bands generously donated not only their time and talent, but all proceeds from ticket sales and merchandise. Ultimately, Brofest raised over $10,000 for various cancer related organizations.
Victory Records will be making a $1,000.00 donation to the Nicholas Hurlbut Memorial Fund in support of this worthy cause and BroFest 2007.
Now a year later, with the support of the Burlington Community Foundation, Brofest will build upon the energy and principles of the original event, while implementing a more sophisticated and extensive fundraising program. We are pleased to announce that all proceeds from this year's event will be directly donated to the newly established Nicholas Hurlbut Memorial Fund. The 2007 Brofest promises to be even more electrifying and explosive than the first, with more music, more limited edition merchandise, and more opportunities to get informed and involved in the fight against cancer.
